Cribs

The installation is composed of Matej Bizovičar's existing projects, Cribs and Capsules, which was partly created during a lighting workshop for students of the Academy of Arts in Nova Gorica as part of the Pixxelpoint festival. A multitude of creatures of all kinds flourishing in the Judgment Tower. These fantastically overgrown and luxuriant creatures that resemble pores or microbes evoke the bubbling of the original life forms in the primordial soup: the artist is thematizing the miracle of life – this is the fifth element in all its stubbornness and indestructibility.
